In talking with non-Who Dat football fans, they keep spouting the misinformation that came out in the first couple of days that's been pretty much dis-proven or been swept under the rug now by rg. Hell,one of'em still keeps bringing up the wire tapping. The public at large has a pretty short attention span and the whole television/marketing consortium (I've really been wanting to use that word for a while) does all it can to keep us that way. Get whatever you want the public to believe out in the first couple of days and it pretty much becomes fact. rg and esnp knows that and did a disgustingly great job in slamming us.

The sad fact is that nobody, but us really cares anymore and there ain't enough of us to make much of an impact on those muck raking hairy corporate rat bastards. Backlash? I'm sorry to say this, but I seriously doubt it.

ESPN is and has turned into the sports version of a never ending reality show. They love drama and will never admit their faults. Skip Bayless and the rest of the clowns are shock jocks as we put it in radio. They love to stir the pot and will never admit they were wrong. They will just move along to another story like it never hapened.

After RG, ESPN will be writing Vilma a real fat check!

I can't wait to see that happen.

I hate ESPN ... the "4-letter network" in some circles. But they've got the rights to everything, so what are you gonna do?

I almost never watch SportsCenter any more, preferring to get my NFL & MLB from their respective networks. College football is a little tougher ...
